In one word, An Hour Unspent by Roseanna M. White is exquisite. I don?t know when the theme of a series and its characters have more completely captured my heart. These stories ? A Name Unknown, A Song Unheard, and An Hour U...

An Hour Unspent was a very good ending to a great series. While this wasn't my favorite of the series, I did really enjoy the read.
I loved the characters and getting to know everyone better. I felt for heroine right away when her engagement ended...and then when a twist happened i...

A FANTASTIC conclusion to an AMAZING series!!!
It?s a given that An Hour Unspent by Roseanna M. White is a remarkable story. Without a doubt, the characters are exceptionally drawn out, the plot is completely engaging, and the historical time period is so well researched and illus...

I LOVE this series and I'm praying that An Hour Unspent isn't the last of it even though it's the dreaded third book in the Shadows Over England series and three seems to the be the magic number in the publishing world. But Barclay has so many siblings and I need a story for each one o...

Blissful sigh.
Is that enough of a review? Because it?s about all my mind is capable of doing at the moment. And not just because of the romance ? although? while we?re talking about it? SWOON. No, I?m sighing blissfully because this is the kind of book that, as soon as ...

You?ll want to steal some hours for yourself to read this wonderful conclusion to the ?Shadows Over England? series! ?An Hour Unspent? by Roseanna White is the third and final book in the series. I have read the first two books in the series and would recommend reading all th...

Soooooo my favorite in the series. I've loved everything I've read by Roseanna M. White and I'd be incredibly hard pressed to pick a favorite of her various series. But I can say without a doubt that this one is my favorite in the Shadows Over England series. Barclay is such a lovable ...

So much HEART! This is how I can define this book... the entire series, in fact!
I've been very much looking forward to writing this review. But I'm feeling SO MUCH I don't know how to put it into words!
Barclay Pearce is a figure! Still finding his steps in this new called faith b...

Roseanna always has a way with words and painting a beautiful picture of history, but I just...this book rubbed me the wrong way. Evelina's character drove me nuts--and it takes a lot to drive me nuts. She was (in my estimation) a whining, egotistical brat. Barclay deserved better, and...

These books just keep getting better. This last book in the Shadows over England series follows Barclay, the big brother of the orphan family.
A thoroughly enjoyable book, An Hour Unspent continues the Shadows over England series that follows a family of street urchins (think a nice...

"Love. The thing worth fighting for. Worth dying for. But more - - - worth living for."
After a dismal termination of her anticipated nuptials, Evelina Manning is bereft of feelings, of any kind; particularly love. And how embarrassing that a virtual stranger, (Mr. Barclay, was it?)...

StaciSep 15, 2018

Lovely conclusion to a well done historical series set during WWI. And the cover is just perfect.
Barclay is the oldest of his family and the main focus of An Hour Unspent. He's an honorable leading character with his focus on family, street smarts and soft spot for the unloved.

3 1/2 stars
I was looking forward to this book so much after finishing book two. I mean, it's hard not to love Barclay. He's such a sweet oldest, and so caring to his siblings! I loved watching his interaction with them all, especially with some of them married.
My problem came with...

FTC DISCLOSURE: I received a complimentary electronic copy of this book from NetGalley. A positive review was not required. These are my honest thoughts and opinions.
This is, perhaps, Roseanna White?s best book to date. The incredible amount of twists and turns, thorough characte...

HannahOct 22, 2018

It's hard to find words to talk about a story this good. So much detail, such absorbing bits, that it was easy to blast right on through to the end.
I don't normally like suffragists at all but this portrayal had me agreeing with her reasoning and also relieved to see some of the m...

?Perhaps if one viewed God like a Master Clockmaker, then every cog, every gear, every spring was important.?
Another wonderful read by this author. I highly recommend reading this entire series. This book can stand alone, but it?s so much better and a fuller picture if all th...

Ashley StanglJan 17, 2019

4.5 stars. Great characters, and I love the dynamic between the main couple. The story drags in sections, some of the mentions of faith feel awkwardly placed, and I don't quite buy that the government would let a civilian woman go on a mission behind enemy lines during WWI, but otherwi...

This book was so good and Barclay Pearce may be one of my favorite book heroes. I loved everything about this story and was sad to see it come to an end. ...

Perfect finale to this series by Roseanna White!
Barclay has been somewhat of an enigma throughout the previous two books. It has been fun to get to know the character that brought this family of London orphans together. Survival and determination to make a better life for those un...

Deanne PattersonOct 16, 2018

An Hour Unspent is the third and final book in the Shadows Over England series.
It's pretty evident with Roseanna's very detailed descriptions and obviously many hours of research she loves what she does. By this I mean she loves to research her books and writing them for us and her q...

Roseanna has done it again... an exciting tale filled with danger, hints of espionage, and Family. Definitely can?t forget the family. I have been waiting for Barclay?s story and wasn?t disappointed. The thief family is an even stronger thread in this book, which I enjoyed immens...

Wow, what an amazing finish to the series! I don?t think I can describe just how much I love this series. I had really high expectations for this book, and it did not disappoint.
I was so excited when I first heard that Barclay was getting his own story. The first two books in th...

It's no secret that Roseanna White is one of my absolutely favorite authors, and this series, Shadows Over England, has been absolutely fascinating! The setting being WWI, there has been intrigue, suspense, and spies! What could be better?Honestly, it is so difficult to say that one bo...

Barclay's much-anticipated story is finally here! I greatly enjoyed his story, although maybe not quite as much as Rosemary's and Willa's. But it's a close call.
Barclay is the most fabulous character ever. I love his big-brotherness, his protectiveness towards his family and his d...

I?ve finished this lovely and engaging story, and gobbled down the series. Set in WW 1, the story follows a plucky clockmakers daughter, Evelina, as she meets the family members we have met in Ms White?s previous books in the series, ?Shadows Over England?. Roseanna White, a ne...

LilianNov 02, 2018

I'M FINALLY FINISHED. It took me so long to get into it (not the author's fault- I was just in a slight reading slump) so I'm so happy that I'm finally done reading it! But it's sad since I loved reading about Barclay and his family- I went into this book without any knowledge about it...
